The HNA has a very good beginner program, if he's played hockey before, he can still use the program to get his head back in the game and get his legs back. They run the program twice a year, once in September, and once in January.
At the end of the program they put teams together and you start playing againts each other for half a year, then you are thrown into the bottom division the following season.
If he doesn't want to be put on a team, he can specify that before he starts.
Just go to hna.com and find the contact info for the Calgary office.
Also the NCHL runs a beginner program, where they also want to put you on a team....
Just go to
www.nchl-calgary.com (it's right on the first page, at the top of the "news" section, it's called "nchl bootcamp"
Hope that helps.
